    15-year jail term awarded to driver for defiling minor in church

    A 27-year-old driver was given a 15-year prison term for having sex with a 14-year-old girl in a church at Sowutuom.

    Enoch Mensah entered a guilty plea to the charge of defilement during his appearance before the Gender Based Violence Court at the Police Headquarters.

    Mensah’s own plea resulted in his conviction and sentencing by the court.

    Mensah is accused of defiling the victim four times in the complainant’s home in addition to the church grounds.

    Innocently following Mensah when he sought her help, the victim defiled the church, as Detective Chief Inspector Opoku Aniagyei begged the court to impose a deterrent sentence.

    In the prosecution’s case, the complainant—a trader who lives in Apotro, close to Sowutuom in Accra—is the mother of the victim, a 14-year-old.

    Mensah, a driver, lived in the same area, according to the prosecutor.

    The victim assisted the accused in cleaning the church at the Church name withheld in Nsumfa, close to Sowutum, in June 2023.

    According to the report, Mensah locked the church, led the victim to an office, and engaged in “unprotected sexual intercourse” with her on a table while admonishing her not to tell anyone.

    Mensah proceeded to have four sex encounters with the victim at the complainant’s home, according to the prosecutor.
